Star of the Week - Terry Lee

At Organic Business Network, our Star of the Week recognition is not about hype, trends, or shortcuts. It’s about respect — respect for the craft, the voice, the journey, and the emotion behind the music. This week, we are proud to name Terryl Lee as our newest Star of the Week, an East Coast R&B/Soul artist whose work reflects patience, purpose, and authenticity at every level.

Terryl Lee is an East Coast resident, actively performing throughout the New York City and Connecticut live music circuit. His sound is rooted in classic R&B and soul traditions, but his approach is deeply personal — built on lived experience, real emotion, and genuine connection with listeners. Rather than chasing algorithms or viral moments, Terryl Lee has earned his audience the traditional way: through consistency, live performance, and songs that speak directly to the heart.

This week also marks a major milestone in his journey. As Melodic Playground Radio officially introduces Terryl Lee to the West Coast, his music now enters a new indie ecosystem that values real human artists and original voices. With the addition of his song “Patience” to Melodic Playground Radio, Terryl Lee steps onto a platform known for championing authenticity and breaking artists beyond their regional borders.

Terryl Lee earned this recognition through his song “Choose Me,” which was recently Respected on the Melodic Playground Music Review Series — a distinction that is not given lightly. In a review environment where hundreds of submissions are evaluated and only a select few pass the bar, “Choose Me” stood out for its emotional honesty, vocal integrity, and unmistakably human presence.

“Choose Me” is not a song designed to impress machines. It’s a song designed to connect with people. From the vocal delivery to the lyrical vulnerability, the track carries the weight of someone asking to be seen, valued, and chosen — not as an option, but as a priority. That sincerity is exactly what earned the song its Respect during the review process.

At Melodic Playground, respect is not about perfection. It’s about truth. And “Choose Me” delivered truth in a way that couldn’t be manufactured or replicated.

The addition of Terryl Lee’s song “Patience” to Melodic Playground Radio feels intentional, almost symbolic. In an industry increasingly driven by speed, shortcuts, and artificial output, “Patience” serves as a reminder that meaningful music takes time. The song reflects the same values Terryl Lee embodies as an artist — restraint, emotional clarity, and trust in the process.

“Patience” doesn’t rush its listener. It allows space for reflection, emotion, and resonance. It’s the kind of record that grows with each listen, revealing more depth the longer you sit with it. That quality aligns perfectly with Melodic Playground Radio’s mission to amplify music that lasts beyond a single moment.




Terryl Lee’s introduction to the West Coast is more than a geographic expansion — it’s a cultural bridge. His East Coast soul roots now meet a West Coast indie network that celebrates originality and real artistry. This moment represents growth not just for the artist, but for the listeners discovering him for the first time.

As his catalog reaches new ears, Terryl Lee stands as a reminder of why human artists still matter. His music carries fingerprints — emotion, breath, imperfection, intention — the things technology can imitate, but never own.

Being selected as Star of the Week is not a finish line — it’s a spotlight on a journey that’s still unfolding. With “Choose Me” earning respect, “Patience” entering rotation, and a new West Coast audience now listening in, Terryl Lee is positioned for a powerful next chapter.

Organic Business Network and Melodic Playground Radio are proud to support artists like Terryl Lee — artists who prove that real voices, real stories, and real emotion will always rise above the noise.

Star of the Week - Dewy

At Organic Business Network, we celebrate creators who challenge the mold, elevate authenticity, and redefine success on their own terms. This week, we’re proud to shine a spotlight on someone doing all of the above—and then some. Meet Dewy, an independent author, visionary thinker, and the fearless force behind the genre-blurring debut Title Goes Here: Adventures in Foolishness.

Based in New York City, Dewy is more than just a writer—she’s a one-woman creative business. From publishing under her own imprint (Madwoman) to maintaining a thought-provoking blog, producing digital content, and launching unique community events, she is building something rare: a fully self-directed creative life.

Her book, Title Goes Here, is a testament to that independent spirit. It blends poetry, short fiction, and original “spells”—yes, spells—into one beautifully strange and undeniably bold volume. Rather than polish her work to fit market trends, Dewy leans all the way into what she calls “foolishness”—her philosophy of embracing instinct, vulnerability, and unfiltered creative voice. The result is something fresh, daring, and impossible to categorize.

In fact, when the book launched earlier this year, it made a quiet but unforgettable impression for one striking reason: it had no cover design. No graphics. Just a blank front that invited readers to open it without bias. What could have been seen as an oversight turned out to be a brilliant piece of marketing that sparked curiosity and reflected the book’s deeper message—freedom from expectation.

Originally from West Texas and now thriving in NYC, Dewy’s path hasn’t been linear. Before writing full-time, she worked in law, where her creative outlets were limited by professional constraints. Eventually, she reached a turning point. “I started writing under my chosen name and felt like I could breathe again,” she shared with us. That breath turned into a blog. That blog became a book. And that book? It’s become a calling card for a whole new wave of creative freedom.

What sets Dewy apart isn’t just the content she creates—it’s the ecosystem she’s building around her art. She maintains a weekly blog to stay creatively agile, develops community programming to foster connection, and consistently reinvests in her craft—not waiting for permission or external validation. Her recent dive into visual media, including a new pilot for Nonya, Bietz & Waxxe LLP, shows that Dewy is expanding her portfolio and reaching new audiences in her own quirky, authentic way.

Her approach to success is as refreshing as her work: “If I’m proud of what I’ve made, that’s enough. Anything else is a bonus.” It’s a mindset that resonates strongly with the values of our Organic Business Network—where purpose, passion, and personal integrity matter more than flashy metrics.

Dewy’s work reminds us that business can be soulful, that storytelling can be a radical act, and that sometimes, the most foolish ideas are the ones that spark the most transformation.

Congratulations to Dewy, our Star of the Week! You can support her work by picking up Title Goes Here: Adventures in Foolishness at your favorite bookstore or online using ISBN: 9798988131854. And don’t forget to check out her blog at dewy.nyc to follow her ongoing journey.
